FREE WEBINAR – Barrier-Based Risk Management

Date: 18 September 2020, Friday

Time: 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM (60 minutes)

Platform: Online – Zoom Pro

Modern day thinking on risk management puts heavy emphasis on the use of defences or barriers to prevent losses attributed to organizational disturbances.  Failure of these barriers leads to unwanted incidents.

Barrier management is therefore an important facet of risk management. The Bowtie technique is ideally suited for this purpose, allowing detailed analysis of prevention and mitigation measures – in other words, the barriers – for specific hazards and their ultimate consequences.   Effective barrier management involves linking the barriers on the Bowties to specific elements of the management system such as HSE-critical activities/tasks and their accountabilities/responsibilities, standards, policies and remedial actions to address any shortfalls.

The Bowtie technique uses a visual format, thus facilitating risk communication. It is currently widely used in such diverse sectors as oil and gas, chemical process, power generation, mining, aviation/aerospace, healthcare, manufacturing, IT security, finance and government.

During this live, 60-minute session, our principal consultant will discuss the overview of Barrier-based Risk Management. He will also answer questions from participants during the session. We look forward to welcome and meet you in the session!
